Flights of Fancy is the original fairy shop and ultimate fairy destination on Tamborine Mountain. Located within the popular Gallery Walk, this venue is sure to amaze both children and adults. (Shop 4, 117 Long Road, Mount Tamborine, QLD 4271)

Upon arrival, visitors are greeted by a tall statue of a striking tree character. Entry via the foyer provides access to both a shop and a relaxing outdoor fairy-inspired garden.

The shop itself is rather small but boasts an impressive collection of ornaments, trinkets, crafts, costumes, clothing and decor. It is separated into four sections – a general retail area and three themed rooms.

The first room is dominated by a large mythical tree character adorned with lights, fairy decorations, steps and secret doors. The walls are full of smaller displays and related items available for purchase. Please note that this room is rather dark and younger children may initially be reluctant to enter.

Mermaids, shells, jewels and various sea creatures fill the second room.

Frozen fans will take particular delight with the cool winter theme of the third and final room. The magic of winter takes the form of an impressive white throne, surrounded by an array of costumes, artwork and decor.

In addition to the shop, Flights of Fancy hosts children's parties by appointment and weekend fairy experiences. Every Saturday and Sunday (10:30am, 12:30pm and 2pm) the fairies gather for a full hour of craft, stories, games and dress ups. For just $15, your child can spend an hour of fun with the fairies, while you have a coffee! Bookings required: 55451157
